Braven Six Series speakers offer Bluetooth audio, wired charging

When is a wireless speaker not a wireless speaker? When you can also plug your phone into the speaker to charge it up in a pinch. That's the hook with Braven's new Six Series speakers, anyway, which come in three different varieties that each pack a USB port that lets you either charge your smartphone or daisy chain multiple speakers together. Ranging in price from $150 to $190, the three different models all also boast similar features across the board, but differ in construction, with the top-end 625s offering a rugged housing (not to mention a built-in LED flashlight), while the 600 and 650 each sport an all-aluminum design -- battery life also varies a bit by model. If the speakers look a little familiar, it's because Braven is the company formerly known as Spar, which offered some similar speakers under the Zephyr name. Hit the source link below for a closer look at each model.

New line of Bluetooth speakers with brilliant fidelity also offers daisy chaining multiple speakers, hands-free speakerphone and mobile charging

Provo, UT - BRAVEN, formerly SPAR, today launches a new website and begins pre-orders for the world's first multi-tasking high-definition Bluetooth speakers with integrated smartphone charger and speakerphone. The three innovative speakers provide room-filling high-fidelity audio in a stunning, sleek design that delivers unprecedented battery life. The line includes a rugged speaker built for durability in sporting and outdoor settings, as well as two striking aircraft-grade aluminum models. Each device offers the unparalleled ability to charge USB devices and daisy chain multiple speakers together.

The BRAVEN SIX Series speakers have two custom extended-range drivers and 3 watt speaker output providing high-fidelity stereo audio with left- and right-channel passive sub woofers. Along with extraordinary battery life ranging from 12 to 20 hours and device charging, the speakers allow continuous wireless play up to 33 feet away. The internal duplex microphone allows for hands-free speakerphone calls with most any Bluetooth cell phone as well as compatibility with FaceTime, iChat, Skype and other applications. The SIX Series also has the ability to connect with other speakers and devices through 3.5mm audio in and out jacks.
